Getting started
What Deckhandoff is and how to set up an event.
For speakers
Uploading, the confirmation and help for every check.
- Uploading your presentationOpen the link from your invitation, drop your files on the page and wait for the confirmation.
- Confirmation and deliverySee which version arrived and where it is: received, checked, with the tech team and ready on the stage computer.
- Several sessions with one linkThe same link works for all your sessions. Upload each session's presentation separately.
- Your own computerIf you can't deliver the file in advance, say you'll bring your own computer and its video output.
- Does your presentation need sound?Tell us whether sound is needed, and the technical team connects it to the venue speakers.
- PDF backupUpload a PDF of the same presentation next to the PowerPoint if fonts or videos could cause problems.
- Technical guidelines for your presentationEverything your presentation needs to work on stage. Read this before you finish your slides; it takes five minutes and saves surprises at the venue.
- Export a Keynote presentationThe venue computers can't open Keynote files. Export to PowerPoint or PDF.
- Save an old .ppt as .pptxOld .ppt files are not accepted. Save the presentation as .pptx.
- The file can't be openedThe file is damaged or not what its name says. Save or export it again.
- Change the slides to 16:9The screen at the venue is 16:9. Other slide sizes show black bars.
- Embed fonts or add a PDFFonts that aren't on the venue computers are replaced, and text can move.
- Insert the video into the presentationThe video is linked to a file on your computer, so it won't play at the venue.
- Avoid videos that play from the internetThe venue network can be unreliable. Embed the video in the presentation if you can.
- Convert the video to MP4 (H.264)Some video formats play on Mac but not on Windows, or the other way round.
- Make a large file smallerLarge files are accepted, but take longer to upload and copy.

- The link is not validThe link has been renewed or revoked. Ask the organiser for a new one.
- The upload was interruptedChoose the same files again in the same browser and the upload continues where it stopped.
- A version was rejectedA rejected version doesn't replace the previous one. Fix the problem as instructed and upload again.
- Delivery failedThe file couldn't be moved to Drive. The fault is in the system, and the organiser is notified.
